14.0.0-next.15 (2022-04-27)

Breaking Changes

common

• Adds new required class member that any implementors of the LocationStrategy will need to satisfy.
  Location does not depend on PlatformLocation anymore.

compiler

• Keyframes names are now prefixed with the component's "scope name".
  For example, the following keyframes rule in a component definition,
  whose "scope name" is host-my-cmp:

  @Keyframes foo { ... }

  will become:

  @Keyframes host-my-cmp_foo { ... }

  Any TypeScript/JavaScript code which relied on the names of keyframes rules
  will no longer match.

  The recommended solutions in this case are to either:

  • change the component's view encapsulation to the None or ShadowDom
  • define keyframes rules in global stylesheets (e.g styles.css)
  • define keyframes rules programmatically in code.

router

• When a guard returns a UrlTree, the router would previously schedule
  the redirect navigation within a setTimeout. This timeout is now removed,
  which can result in test failures due to incorrectly written tests.
  Tests which perform navigations should ensure that all timeouts are
  flushed before making assertions. Tests should ensure they are capable
  of handling all redirects from the original navigation.
